My C25K app merely tells me when to walk or jog. It doesn't matter where I exercise...

Did you do the happy dance? ;)

I'm 41. I've already lost 110 pounds with about 25 more to go. Feel free to add. :)

Congratulations! I am hovering at that elusive mark myself...I cannot WAIT to walk in onederland! Enjoy! :happy:

Everybody tells me that I look younger. I'll just believe them. ;)

I started my journey a year ago at 308 pounds. Today I weigh 203 and "one"-derland is just around the corner. I want to lose about 40 more pounds. MFP has been great...add me if you wish. :)

Since I began this journey in January 2013, I have lost 105 pounds. My goal for 2014 is to hit one-derland, lose my last thirty-fortyish pounds, and hit maintenance. The weight loss has slowed down considerably over the last two months, but that is to be expected. I just keep doing what I'm doing--logging everything that I…

Raiders of the Lost Ark...love it! :)

The NeverEnding Story!

You CAN'T think about NASCAR? The last race was Sunday, silly.

A support system makes this lifestyle change SO much easier. Feel free to add me...and gest of luck. :)

My initial goal? To hit onederland for the first time since...ever. I am only seventeen pounds away from that initial goal. Since that goal is actually within sight now, something that I doubted would EVER happen, I have set a new goal of 175. I will still be over a "healthy" BMI, but I think that I could be happy at that…

The way that I handle cravings is to avoid prohibiting anything to eat. If I want a cookie, I have A cookie. I allow myself a taste, realizing that that taste means an extra number of minutes on the treadmill or exercise bike. If I say something is off limits, my psyche seems to DEMAND that I eat twelve of them; to…

I've lost the World's Largest Ball of Tape! Glad that the weight hasn't "stuck" to me! :tongue:

I have to control my English teacher instincts. MUST...NOT...GRAB...RED...PEN...AND...CORRECT...

I joined about the same time that you did with a similar goal. I've dropped 81 pounds and log daily. Feel free to add...

One of my favorite snacks that tends to satisfy my hunger are apples (less than 100 calories). I also LOVE almonds (I count out serving sizes). Raw broccoli/cauliflower are filling and low calorie--you can even have some Greek yogurt or other kind of dip. :)

Welcome! I joined MFP back in January. So far, I have lost 81 pounds (and four pants sizes), and I would like to lose about 40-60 more. Trust me, if I can make this lifestyle change, anyone can. If you would like to add me as a friend, maybe we can encourage each other. Good luck! :wink:

Welcome! I know all about needing to put yourself first. I am a mother of two active boys, plus I teach and coach. I joined MFP back in January. So far, I have lost 81 pounds, and I would like to lose about 30 or 40 more. Trust me, if I can make this lifestyle change, anyone can. If you would like to add me as a friend,…

My starting goal was to lose 100 pounds, I am currently at 81 pounds lost. Feel free to add me...

We all need a little encouragement. Feel free to add me...:flowerforyou:

Thank you for your story. You look incredible, and I am certain that you feel amazing. I started my journey in January 2013. Like you, I focus mostly on cardio and logging every morsel that goes into my mouth (including an occasional ice cream or cookie). I have lost 78 pounds thus far on my way to a goal of 110. Every…

I started with logging everything that I ate. This practice made me consider every morsel that I put into my mouth. Next, I started drinking a LOT of water (12+ glasses each day). I also resolved to move at least 30 minutes a day--walking, dancing, riding a bike--anything active. Since January, I've dropped 78 pounds. If I…

Best of luck with your goals. Because I turned forty this year, I decided to get fabulous (AKA healthy) this year as well! Since starting in January, I have dropped 78 pounds. I would like to lose another 30 or so. Please feel free to add me. After all, fabulous is more fun with friends! :)

Good luck on your journey! When I joined MFP in January, I needed to lose more than 100 pounds as well. As of today, I am 63 pounds lighter, but having a support system is so important. Add me if you like...we can help each other!

I started my journey to lose 100+ pounds in five months ago. To date, I've lost 60 pounds by making sure that I moved DAILY for at least thirty minutes and faithfully logging my food into MFP. I still have quite a way to go, but I now have the faith that I can reach my goal. If I can do it, you can, too. Best of luck! :)

Thank you. Reading your account of your journey is eerie because it sounds almost exactly like mine. When I started logging into MFP in January, I weighed 308 pounds. I had been heavy since I was seven years old. Yes, I had tried dieting before, but it never stuck. MFP is different because I now carefully consider every…

Sure...why not?

More info, please.

Welcome Jennifer! I have been a member for about four months. In that time, I have lost 51 pounds and earned SO much self-esteem. I have been heavy most of my life (much heavier than you), and I had tried lots of methods to lose the weight before. The key this time? I keep my intake within the recommended ranges, and I…
